Form & Verdict
Unraced on slower than good; minor form for the Gosdens but went close on debut for this yard at Yarmouth (7f; first-time tongue-tie); not achieved as much since but the return to this trip should help and Oisin Murphy is back in the saddle for the first time since Yarmouth.

Winning handicap debut over 6f at Doncaster (soft) in April and he may not have handled the Ripon track when only sixth next time; fair fourth back over 7f on AW since, seeming to stay the trip well enough behind a subsequent winner, and is one of the better ones back on turf.

Verdict

Many of the runners have something to prove on different grounds but AW winner SLIPPIN JIMMY came closest to breaking his turf duck when taking a late second at Haydock recently and he should be able to win at this level. Climate Change lacks a recent run but is lightly raced enough to think he can improve on his handicap debut at Southwell now switched to turf, while Highfield Viking and Fortuitous Star can also play a part.[Emily Weber]
